IPod touch stuck on Apple screen?

I tried holding both buttons like everyone says but the screen just goes bank for a second then comes back to the Apple logo. What do I do?

- Try:
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If not successful and you can't turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for at least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • IPod Touch Stuck on Apple Screen and iTunes won't recognize

    I was resetting my ipod touch to clean it off to give to my sister. I thought it was plugged in, but turns out it was not, so the battery died while it was resetting itself. Now it is stuck on the apple screen. I have tried everything to reboot it and get iTunes to recognize the device, but nothing has worked. I had my computer cleaned, so iTunes is brand new and has never been hooked up to this iPod Touch. I need help please!!

    TRy placing the iPod in DFU mode and then restoring. See:

  • IPod Touch Stuck On Apple Screen After Reset

    iPod Touch would not show up in iTunes after being connected to the computer so I went through the online walkthrough of common problems, when I reset the ipod it froze on the apple logo and will not respond at all.
    Any solutions?

    I was having the exact same problem with my Ipod touch, finally I figured out the problem after having tried all of those troubleshooting links, 1st I went into the start menu then right clicked on My Computer, then clicked manage. Then once I got into computer management I clicked on Device Manager, and at the bottom of the page I clicked the on Universal Serial Bus Controllers, it should say apple Mobil device right underneath, once you get there leave this page open. Open up itunes, connect ipod then hold the on/off switch and home button until itunes asks you to restore your ipod. Click restore, and it may say also say update and restore if so click on it. Then while it tries to restore your ipod click back on computer management and keep an eye on the apple mobil device USB port, you should get a warning that pops up next to the mobil device port, if you do double click on the apple mobil device and click reinstall.
    Sorry this is so long and drawn out I hope that it helps.

    my iPod touch stuck in apple logo.I try to recovered ,but after recovery start  error message comes and says try later.what should i do ?

    Try:
    - Powering off and then back on your router.
    - iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
    - Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
    Public DNS — Google Developers
    OpenDNS IP Addresses
    - For one user uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes resolved the problem
    - Try on another computer/network
      - Wait if it is an Apple problem

  • Ipod Touch Stuck On iTunes Screen. The iPod 'iPod' cannot be restored at this time because the ipod software update server could not be contacted or is temporarily unavailable.

    I got a new ipod touch for Christmas.
    Today I was going to put music on it, i was told there was updates.
    So I went ahead to do them.
    My Ipod is stuck on the screen with the usb cord pointing to the itunes logo.
    In Itunes i'm told :
    Itunes has dected an ipod in recovery mode. You must restore this ipod before it can be used with itunes.
    Turning the ipod off - the same screen appears when it's back on.
    When I click restore ipod and after restore and update is clicked ; Extracting software loads up at the top.
    When its done this is the message I get:
    The iPod 'iPod' cannot be restored at this time because the ipod software update server could not be contacted or is temporarily unavailable.
    I've been looking up trying to figure it out myself and have read making sure a setting in Lan Settings in Internet Properties has ; Automatically detect settings checked. I still get the same ipod message.
    I've tried holding the power and home key to turn it off, then powering it back on. But that doesn't work.
    I installed itunes today, so its up to date - I checked.
    I don't know what else to do.
    Can someone help me out, please? :}
    The operating system was ios 5 something? It wanted to update to 6 i believe.

    I've tried the top part but now that i've looked to the bottom:
    Additional Information
    The “hosts” file may also be blocking gs.apple.com.
    Select the hosts file (normally you can find your hosts file at C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC).
    I put this in the url bar?
    When it gives me the list of names, im not sure what to do from there. The steps aren't that clear for me.

  • IPod is stucked in apple screen and it's not recognized at iTunes, iPod is stucked in apple screen and it's not recognized at iTunes

    I have an iPod Touch 4th generation and a windows7 machine; and it's stucked in apple screen. And it's not reconized in iTunes program. Please, help.

    this just happened to me as well. i've found several other threads here that amount to people with the same problem. the posts are all from this week and no one has goten an answer yet. the phone help amounted to the 'hold the sleep and home buttons' advice that only puts you right where you already are: looking at the 'connect to itunes' picture. then my help guy says 'let me ask a supervisor' and basically hangs up on me.
    this is the second time for me, though, so i already know that if you go into the store they can do the restore there. what i want is advice on how to prevent this without just refusing all future updates.

  • ... have tried everything to restart my ipod touch. stuck on that screen with the apple logo

    My Ipod Touch suddenly stopped working. It hadtrouble starting up – then suddenly turned on after a few minutes of pushingthe start button. The next time I turned it off, it never started back up. Symptoms:
    It is stuck on the apple logo screen (with thecircle of moving bars – as if it is waiting or doing something) and never moveson from this.
    When I plug it in and try to restore it:
    Whensyncing with my back-up, I get the error: ITunes could not restore it becausean error occurred
    WhenI set up a new Ipod, everything downloads. (apps, music etc)
    It looks like it is fixed, butwhen I unplug it and try to get it to work, it is still stuck in the apple logoscreen – same as above.
    I have also updated all of the software. Still - no go!
    When it is plugged in to mycomputer, I am able to play music and see the items in the ipod. Through this,I have even updated my software. This all works .. but that screen with theapple logo does not go away and I just cannot access it manually through the touchscreen or ipod buttons.
    Who can help me?

    Did you also try to connect in recovery mode? http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

  • IPod Touch stuck on Apple Logo Screen

    Today, I spilled some water on my iPod touch, but I dried it up right away. Now, however, the iPod is stuck on the apple logo. I've tried holding down the lock and home buttons and the screen will go black and then the apple logo appears again, but it won't go any farther than that. I plugged it into my computer to restore it, but my computer won't recognize it.
    Did I kill my iPod, or is there anything I can do? It's less than a year old, so it's still under warranty, but is there any point in bringing it in?

    my ipod touch is doing the same thing. it is so frustrating because it is frozen on the apple screen with two lines and won't respond to the computer and sometimes it will go to a screeen we pink vertical lines with the apple screen in the background. i called apple yesterday and they made me wait a day but nothing happened. any advice?

  • IPod Touch stuck on loading screen

    This is somehow FRUSTRATING. My iPod touch (4G)is always stuck on the loading screen whenever i unlock it.
    It only happens if i didn't use it for the whole day, and if there's a program are opened. I didn't jailbreak it, and my ipod touch never fall. I tried to restore it. And it didn't help! I just had it for less than a month.
    Can anyone help me? Could it be a hardware defect? Can i get replacement from the apple store?

    Did you restore to factory defaults/new iPod? If not, try that.  If it still occurs then you likely have a hardware problem and an appintment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order. If your iPod is within warranty, not abused and effective, Apple will replace it at no cost.
